The X Factor USA aired its top 4 live show December 14, 2011. Josh Krajcik sang Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen as his second song.

JUDGES’ COMMENTS: LA said that lacked excitement for him and said his advice for Josh and the finals is to stop looking back and to look ahead to where he can go. Paula was crying and said Josh is the performer that opens up his heart and said he is the one to beat. She said he did a brilliant performance. Simon agreed with Paula. He said Josh came out with a great song, it was sincere and he thinks that song will put Josh into the finals. Nicole said that was like a beautiful prayer and that was a gift to all of us.
